    Abstract

    Intracavity spectral shaping and external chirp compensation techniques were employed to generate nearly transform-limited optical pulses with a temporal duration of 250 fs from an external-cavity modelocked semiconductor laser. It was also demonstrated that intracavity spectral shaping techniques can be used for artificially tailoring the chirp of the output pulses.
